The Dalai Lama has said "Nagarjuna's Seventy Stanzas on Emptiness cites the fact that phenomena come into being in dependence upon causes and conditions as the proof that they lack ultimate existence. Emptiness is thus established by taking the fact of causal origination as the premise." Experiencing emptiness in this way is an antidote to our misunderstandings about the nature of our minds and thoughts, and frees us from our delusions. This seminar will examine this theme, which is at the heart of the Seventy Stanzas.
